As the name implies the device we built resembles the functionality provided by a metronome – so basically it’s a “click-machine”.

But what is the difference between a standard metronome and the MMM? Well, imagine you, as a musician, hear a song on the radio and you think “heck, what a nice song, I might wanna try this at home”. With your standard metronome you’ll have to pay close attention and repeated trial and error to find the correct beat – and this is where the MMM kicks in. Furthermore the MMM comes with four LED-flashlights supporting beat recognition in dark and/or noisy areas – much like most rehearsal rooms are. Finally the MMM also offers three different volume settings: Medium, ideal for your private training sessions; Loud, all you need at your rehearsal and mute, in case you don’t need any sound at all and simply want to have those flashlights as a guide for your band.

Realtek HD Changing Jack output reassignments ( FIX ) - Page 17. Hi I just wanted to bump this because it worked for me. Basically I made this post in another forum: I have a Dell XPS LS01X. It has 3 audio slots: 1) Audio-out/headphone connector 2) Headphone/digital S/PSIF combo connector 3) Audio-in/microphone connector My 5.1 system requires 3 slots - it has a black, pink and green wire. My Dell manual says for the audio-in slot: "NOTE: You can get up 5.1 channel speakers by using the three audio connectors (1, 2 and 3) or by using the S/PDIF connector (2)".

With Realtek Audio Manager (system controls for audio) I can change what the jacks are used for. 1) Can be used for; -Headphone -Front Speaker Out 2) -Headphone -Front Speaker Out -Rear Speaker Out -Center/Subwoofer Speaker Out -S/PDIF-Out 3) (Audio slot) -Line In -Mic In -Rear Speaker Out I have a Logitech X-530. In the registry, I found PIN01 PIN03 PIN04 - I think reinstalled the Realtek HD audio and the numbers changed to like PIN19 PIN1a PIN1b.

Connecting Two PCs Using a USB-USB Cable. A very easy way to connect two PCs is to use a USB-USB cable. By connecting two PCs with a cable like this, you can transfer files from one PC to another, and even build a small network and share your Internet connection with a second PC. In this tutorial, we will explain you how to connect two PCs using this type of cable. The first thing you should be aware of is that there are several different kinds of USB-USB cables on the market. The one used to connect two PCs is called “bridged” (or “USB networking cable”), because it has a small electronic circuit in the middle allowing the two PCs to talk to each other. There are called A/A USB cables that, in spite of having two standard USB connectors at each end, don’t have a bridge chip and cannot be used to connect two PCs.

In fact, if you use an A/A USB cable, you can burn the USB ports of your computers or even their power supplies. Click to enlargeFigure 1: USB-USB bridged cable. click to enlargeFigure 3: Bridge chip used in our cable.
